Fantasia to Lose Fantasy Home?

Is "American Idol" champ Fantasia Barrino going to lose her home home?

It's true. Fantasia's $1.3 million, 6-bedroom mansion in Charlotte, NC is going into foreclosure, but the season 3 winner will not be homeless. Fantasia still owns a smaller home in same city.

Fantasia recently received a 2009 Grammy nomination for the track "I'm His Only Woman" with Jennifer Hudson. The "AI" alum is also expected to release her third album sometime next year.

Please do not forget that the same thing happened with Will Smith and look at him now. Some people are so jidgemental but I will agree with the person who said that money management classes should be mandatory

This is so sad , that let’s you know no matter how much money you have….don’t spend more than you make. I hope she’s learned her lesson.

too bad… but these people that have instant success always have to go way overboard with their spending! i don’t have one ounce of sympathy for her.

When young entertainers achieve success and money the first investment should be a class in money management. This is not encouraged by their managers or advisors because the less they know the more profit will be made from those taking advantage of their naivete.

I do not believe her winning American Idol has anything to do with her financial abilities. She needs to go back to school to learn how to handle a lot of money, that is what I would do.

There is a term I can’t remember for people who get a little cash and live as if they are rich. She fits the profile.

she can definitely sing and should have won that season, however, she may need to take better care of her business.

Sure, Jennifer or Latoya, but America didn’t like them. They voted for Fantasia and they voted in reord numbers, remember.
I think “American Idol” should retire now. It has produce enough od “hits and misses” in the talent department.

I’m sorry, i don’t think she should have won, there were so many better singers then her that should have one. America got that one WRONG.
